Hi guys,
i have a problem with my Samsung NC10. I Installed Xubuntu 9.10 and nearly everything worked great except the webcam.
wen i try luvcview to test it i get:
luvcview 0.2.4
SDL information:
Video driver: x11
A window manager is available
Device information:
Device path: /dev/video0
Stream settings:
Frame format: YUYV (MJPG is not supported by device)
Frame size: 352x288 (requested size 640x480 is not supported by device)
Frame rate: 5/1 fps (requested frame rate 30 fps is not supported by device)
the webcam window opens but it's all black. also in Skype and cheese it doesn't work.
Can someone help? Thanks in advance!

and everything works as expected.
Please use these commands to check if the 'uvcvideo' module is loaded with non-default options:
If the output of the 3 commands is '0', you are using the defaults options (they work for me).
If this is the case, it's likely to be an hardware problem of your webcam.
